LandScan is excited to announce the granting of a patent for our infrared sensor technology that is a key component of the Digital Soil Core (DSC). This technology is the next generation of an infrared soil probe developed and deployed by many of these inventors two decades ago. This hardy and mobile sensor system, when
The business of looking down is looking up! LandScan’s is adding another patent to our growing technology platform. Our comprehensive system combines both the hardware and software necessary to produce the type of high resolution spectral and thermal photogrammetry required for advanced computational agronomy. The technology is for airborne applications (drones and airplanes) because it
I am honored and excited to be an invited speaker at the upcoming IFA Smart & Green Conference. The title of my talk will be: Building a Digital Twin for Applied Agronomy There are many other interesting speakers as well. I would encourage anyone who is interested in the topic “where tech meets plant nutrition”
That’s a pretty bold title. Why should you believe it? To understand why proximal soil sensing (PSS) will obsolete soil coring and laboratory analysis (specifically for digital soil mapping and precision agriculture), we must first understand how each arrives at its answers. And, we must consider how close those answers can ever get to the
Understanding the soil is important for our food supply and the health of people and the planet, and yet it remains the most unexplored and elusive part of the Agtech information and analytics ecosystem. The future of soil classification and its power to enable ML/AI and digital twin applications must include direct sensing with probes
Join LandScan CEO, Dan Rooney, at the Vision Conference on January 17-18, 2023 in Glendale, AZ. The VISION Conference convenes leaders across the rapidly expanding agtech ecosystem with a singular goal: To shape the strategic roadmap for building a sustainable food value system to feed the world.
LandScan’s Digital Soil Core was used to characterize soil health indicators across a young almond orchard in the San Joaquin Valley after whole orchard recycling as part of a UC Davis study. A poster about our work was presented at the Fall 2022 conference of the American Geophysical Union. See the full poster here. Thank
Thank you Tim Hammerich for taking the time and giving me the opportunity to speak to the industry via your podcast The Future of Agriculture! #ii4ag #digitaltwins #digitalagriculture https://overcast.fm/+a-BVe0eiM
We’d like to recognize the important work of LandScan’s COO Jeff Dlott as he was selected to accompany California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) Secretary Karen Ross on a Climate Smart Ag Policy Mission that includes the 2035 Oceania Summit that starts today in Auckland, New Zealand. Jeff serves as the Chair of the
The Digital Soil Core (DSC) is the only technology in the world that provides the type of information you will see in this video. The DSC will change the way water use is optimized in agriculture by enabling next-level precision irrigation. There is a significant difference in the root zone (top 4 feet) plant available
Introducing the LandScan FluxH2O sensor system! We will be looking for beta-test partners for 2023! #ii4ag #fluxh20
Introducing the LandScan Digital Vegetation Signature (DVS) analytics dashboard. It’s more than cool pictures, these data are the result of spatially, spectrally, and thermally calibrated high-resolution imagery that enables true temporal analysis. These many independent information dimensions power deep machine learning and when combined with the Digital Soil Core (DSC) data creates a quantitative understanding
Dr. Wample is a valued member of the LandScan team. He is a brilliant plant physiologist with practical experience conducting agronomic research at an industrial scale. We are proud of his service to our country as a US Marine. See here as Dr. Wample is interviewed for the Vets in Ag podcast sponsored by AGD Consulting,
Introducing the LandScan Digital Vegetation Signature (DVS). Remote sensing applications in agriculture and forestry are ubiquitous. Everyone it seems has a sensor mounted on a drone, airplane, or ground-based vehicle and satellite imagery is widely available to all. This has led to pervasive claims of the analytical power of these tools, claims that are almost
Introducing the LandScan Digital Soil Core (DSC). Imagine obtaining an objective, repeatable, and transferable continuous vertical profile through the root zone in 90 seconds! The DSC contains 7 unique sensors: tip force, sleeve friction, moisture, salinity, sound, imagery, and spectroscopy. In addition to assessing well over a dozen soil properties it is also important to
Thank you for your interest in LandScan’s services.
We are currently taking reservations for the 2023 season. Reservations require a $99 fee to hold your place in-line. Once your reservation is placed, our team of experts will contact you to develop a work plan and cost estimate. The fee does not guarantee we will be able to provide service in your region in 2023. However, it is fully refundable until the job is scheduled. Please note that we will be prioritizing US-West before other regions.
